Peter Brock Presented Lifetime Achievement Award

Peter Brock has been awarded the International Automotive Media Award (IAMA) for Lifetime Achievement by the Automotive Hall of Fame in Dearborn, Michigan.

The IAMA for Lifetime Achievement award is in recognition of Brock's 25 or more years in the automotive media. Brock has covered all kinds of auto racing, and his contributions to the craft also include automotive designs that have appeared in brochures, posters, and various other forms.

Having just returned to the U.S. from the 24 Hours of Le Mans race, Brock accepted the award and said: "I love participating and writing about all forms of competition and design. Long ago I found that true racers are special people; it matters not whether they are involved cerebrally with the basic concepts, the actual creative design and fabrication, or finally putting the results of those ideas to test on the track, each in his own way is seldom given to compromise. There's great beauty in that kind of sacrifice; in striving always to be the best."

Well said. And it's an award well deserved for Brock, who then headed off to Pikes Peak for the annual hill climb this weekend.

For the record, Brock joins previous award recipients such as Chris Economaki, Brock Yates and the late David E. Davis. "It's a real honor to be included in such an amazing group."
